re: 35 INCH TIRES
They will fit, but will rub if you articulate the truck to much or add to much weight in the back. Take it to a tire shop and have them do a test fit. As far as frame rub you should be just fine.
I run 33". I can't run 35" because I haul wood with it.

re: 35 INCH TIRES
I have a skyjacker 4in lift and run 35's and they have rubbed the fenders every time I go offroading. Then again I'm not easy on it. On a 2wd stock you can fit 31's so with a 4in lift I'd say easily 33's and 35's if it was staying primarily on the road but might rub offroad on some of your body when turning and compressed. You could also call up Autofab in California the guy there is way cool and I'm sure he'd tell you exactly what you'd need for lift to fit what you want under your truck and be functional.

re: 35 INCH TIRES
Buy a cordless sawzall and carry it with you. Just whack off anything that rubs the tires.
Great ideas have always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds.
